How do I put a value on a book?

Hi there SFFWORLDERS,

I am thinking about selling a first edition, signed copy of one of my favorite books, which is gathering dust and wondered how on earth I go about getting an estimate on the value of the book? I have looked online and can't find another copy out there, certainly not signed.

For book collectors eBay and AbeBooks, as already mentioned, are good places to buy/sell. Another site aimed more towards collectors than every-day book purchasers is Alibris. There, I saw Against the Horde, 1st ed., 1st printing for as high as $54.00 USD.

eBay UK has a signed first edition of Legend onsale at the moment with an opening bid price of &#163;400, condition described as 'Good' - has been read, scuff on the cover, but in good nick overall.

No bids on it yet so unsure of how realistically it is priced.

Must say, that is one title that would have pride of place were I to own it. Since the sad demise of DG, I would think that the price of the book will only continue to rise, why not bag it up and pop it away somewhere safe?
